Studies have shown that girls toys cost more than boys toys 55% of the time.

Really? A lot of traditionally "boy's" toys like Legos and Erector sets are pretty fucking expensive.

Girls clothing cost more than boys clothing 26% of the time.

Women's clothing costs more than men's clothing over 40% of the time.

Well, all clothing is pretty generalized. But men's clothing is usually much simpler in design than women's clothing, partly due to how bodies are shaped. And again, pretty generalized. Is women's clothing a lot more expensive, or do women shell out more money than they need to to get "designer" brands while men don't give a shit as long as it's comfortable and looks ok?
Just went to a wedding and my wife found plenty of nice dresses for $30 - $50 and ended up paying $12 for one from a store that sells previously owned clothing.
Meanwhile, I needed a new dress shirt and that alone was $20. I luckily had everything else, but my pants were $35, dress coat $100, shoes $30 (payless FTW, otherwise dress shoes for men are easily 2x or 3x as much), belt...was so long ago I don't remember but probably $15, tie was around $15-20.... And I'm chea....err..."frugal" and only buy stuff on sale or at a really good price.
Just saying.

Women routinely pay over 25% more for haircuts than men – even though both take the same amount of labour.

LOL, that's fucking bull shit
